EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Carrying of the Cross" captured by Quint Lox from Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in Christian history. Painted by Hieronymus Wierix between 1563 and 1619, this masterpiece depicts the intense scene of Christ's journey to Golgotha. The image showcases Christ collapsing under the weight of the cross, his body strained and weary. The Roman soldier urges him forward with an authoritative gesture, while another stands nearby observing. This poignant portrayal captures both the physical agony endured by Jesus and the emotional turmoil that surrounded his crucifixion. Wierix's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the intricate folds of Christ's robe to the expressions etched on each character's face. Through this artwork, we can almost feel their anguish and desperation as they navigate through this fateful event. This piece draws inspiration from John 19 in Latin Bible scriptures which narrates this very momentous occasion. It serves as a reminder of sacrifice, resilience, and unwavering faith amidst adversity. Quint Lox has skillfully transformed Wierix's original painting into a stunning print that allows us to appreciate its beauty and significance today. As we gaze upon it, let us reflect on our own burdens and find solace knowing that even during our darkest moments, there is always hope for redemption.
